This is our 55in. Giant Scale Park Flyer

The Gen-X  is a pattern plane that allows you to fly a complete IMAC sequence

with the same precision as your competition plane. This will allow you to get up to speed on the new 2010 IMAC Sequences in a nearby park or at your flying field.

This kit is available in three other sizes, the 28in., 38in. and our 48in. Gen-X.

 

 

"I was surprised by how slowly it flies. It is the closest thing in foam I have found to flying a 40%. If you are looking for something different and exciting in a foam plane, try this one." 1bwana1

Notes:

The airframe is fun to build, with colored step-by-step instructions, you'll have it completed in a couple evenings. This giant foamie is easy to launch, and slows to a walk for fly-by's or landings. Loops, rolls, knife edges, waterfalls, walls, elevators and harriers are very much like flying a 40% gasser, nice and slow! Hovering is as easy as it gets, it's rock solid. Slow flight rudder only turns are great for flying in a small spaces. Using a 3S 2200 20C LiPoly, flight times are around 6-8 minutes.
